Getting good grades has its benefits-dean's list, scholarships, and now free food. Parents may be pleased to learn that not only is it easier to help youngsters do well in school than they may have thought-it can also be rewarding and fun.
Here are some tips:
? Keep learning continuous: Point out historic sites when you go out and scientific facts when the opportunities arise.
? Ask kids to figure out how much change you should get at the store.
? Be a good role model and read books and newspapers.
? Compliment knowledge and praise good grades.
Joining parents in the effort is the national Italian restaurant chain Sbarro. It's offering free pizza to good students and their parents. Students with good grades can "pay" for their meal and a parent's meal by showing their report card.
On Friday, June 23, 2006, all "PizzAchievers"-elementary school students with A's and B's-can bring their report card to participating Sbarro locations, say "A's and B's'Pizza Please!" and get a free slice of pizza and a soda for themselves and one parent.
